The Billboard Music Awards had to take their crack at a Whitney Houston tribute, which - fine. It's not like they can ignore it. But once again, an "American Idol" was trotted out to sing "I Will Always Love You." Why can't just once it be something like Brandi and Nicki Minaj do the "I Wanna Dance With Somebody" remix or something like that? You think Whitney wouldn't love a rockin' rendition of one of her '80s dance hits? We bet she would. This time, her sister-in-law Pat and her daughter Bobbi Kristina accepted the Millenium Award on her behalf. Bobbi was obviously very touched by all the outpouring of support, so that was nice. -- Andrea Reiher, Zap2it
